I quote from Justice Kagan’s dissent in West Virginia v. EPA, “The subject matter of the regulation here makes the Court’s intervention all the more troubling. Whatever else this Court may know about, it does not have a clue about how to address climate change. And let’s say the obvious: The stakes here are high. Yet the Court today prevents congressionally authorized agency action to curb power plants’ carbon dioxide emissions. The Court appoints itself—instead of Congress or the expert agency—the decision-maker on climate policy. I cannot think of many things more frightening. Respectfully, I dissent.”
Look, morons. There is not much to say about this case except that traitor trump got his climate-denying uber-conservative SCOTUS majority who has no interest in helping the government fight climate change. So, this is what Americans wanted when they voted for traitor trump. What else am I to conclude? People voted, and elections have consequences. This is the result. I feel bad for younger Americans who fear climate change realities and who must live under a SCOTUS that basically says to them: F*** you! Oh, well. I mean, this is the same SCOTUS majority — less Thomas, who is the oldest — they’ll have to live with for the next 20 years if America lasts that long. Welcome to stupid America!
